Gem Towers is easy to play but hard to master. See if you can get three stars on each level. Gem Towers is a physics based game that simulates collisions and gravity. The towers are constructed of gems which may vary in size and shape. Your goal is to break all green gems and to save as many red gems as possible. Removing a red gem and gems that go off the platform will subtract one "life". You have 3 lives at the beginning of each level.
Maze Pool
Read full descriptionHide full description
Simple and fun game in which the player must score the colored balls into the appropriate pockets. As you progress, the levels become more and more difficult and complex, incorporating other elements, such as gates, magnets that push the balls away, or even portals. All these elements are colored and only balls of the same color can interact with them.
